Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt
- Captain Jack Buckley: [coming upon the location of a vanished crewman] Lazzari was right here, wasn't he?
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: [over the radio] Yes.
- Captain Jack Buckley: I hate to say it - it sounds crazy - but... there's no sign that Lazzari was ever even here. No struggle. Nothing. The enemy must really be invisible, like Tillie says.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: Can you get that metal loose?
- [Buckley easily lifts the twisted metal that Lazzari found difficult to raise]
- Captain Jack Buckley: I take it all back, skipper. There's blood on this thing.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: There's been a mishap, General. Capt. Lazzari's in trouble. Request permission to leave the vehicle immediately to go to his assistance.
- General Winston: Request under... consideration, Major. First, I want the facts. Was Capt. Lazzari attacked? If affirmative, by what?
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: [holding back annoyance] I don't know, sir.
- General Winston: He was under constant surveillance?
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: He was temporarily blocked from view behind wreckage of the M-1.
- General Winston: Well, how do you know ANYTHING happened to him?
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: He screamed for help.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: Okay, Lazzari, let's have it again.
- Captain Paul Lazzari: One: Descend to base of vehicle and wait for orders
- Captain Jack Buckley: [clapping] Hey, very good. You got that right that time.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: Shut up, Buckley.
- Captain Paul Lazzari: Two: On command, proceed with caution to target, keeping always under observation from the vehicle.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: Purpose?
- Captain Paul Lazzari: Reconnoiter target for indication of hostile action against personnel of previous probe, namely M-1, which may have lead to their demise.
- Major Charles 'Chuck' Merritt: Mission?
- Captain Paul Lazzari: Gather up all evidence of exact nature of enemy, if any, and bring it back to the vehicle.
- [Maj. Merrit gives him a look]
- Captain Paul Lazzari: Uh, safely.
